Abstract
null null Four-dimensional (4D) printing of multi-directionally reinforced preforms has tremendous potential for the development of next generation functional composites by using the capabilities of 3D printing technology, 3D textile preform design, and polymer shape memory behavior. This work demonstrates the shape memory behavior and recovery force of 4D printed circular braided tube preforms and their silicone elastomer matrix composites. The...
